Call for Tutorial Proposals

Several half-day tutorials will be held on 20 August 2006. We now solicit proposals for these tutorials. The tutorials may be on topics closely related to the five tracks of ICPR 2006. Topics from other related fields are also welcome, but the tutorial presenters should state clearly in their proposals how knowledge in these areas can lead to possible collaboration with researchers already working in the core areas of ICPR.

If you are interested in presenting a tutorial at ICPR 2006, please send the following information to the Tutorial Co-Chair, Dit-Yan Yeung, via e-mail (dyyeung@cs.ust.hk) by 15 January 2006:
